Re: createTimestamp?

[Mark W. <mew...@un...>]

I'm not familiar with the $mesg->as_struct... Is that new Graham (sorry
I'm in the middle of a major software upgrade here and haven't looked at
.20 yet).

In any case, createTimestamp is an operational attribute, which means it's
not a physical part of the entry (it's actually generated by the server
via data stored somewhere else for example the server logs, or at least
that's how I understand it) and is usually only available to you if you
are authenticated as the directory super-user account.
